A woman was seriously injured in San Diego County’s Imperial Beach when she was struck by a left-turning driver as she rode with two other people in a bike lane. Needless to say, the driver claims he never saw her — and somehow concludes, based on that total lack of knowledge, that she never saw him, either. Thanks to Frank Lehnerz for the heads-up.

Wow. Have you seen the bike parking in Amsterdam? It is crazy. I could see docke bike share for tourists but to just leave bikes around anywhere would be a problem. Not in the least the city has narrow sidewalks also. Plus bikes left in pedestrian spaces can infringe on the needs of people who are more mobility challenged to get around. They are unlikely to be able to move the bike out of their way also.

As for parking in bike lanes perhaps the solution is to allow cyclists to tag the vehicles in violation…..
